Mental Health Halfway House - Charlottesville, Wellness Recovery Center, Region Ten Community Services Board

The Wellness Recovery Center (WRC) is a short-term residential crisis stabilization program for adults (ages 18+) who are experiencing a mental health crisis. The primary purpose of the program is to get a person who is in a crisis help so they can avoid psychiatric hospitalization and remain in the community. The WRC onsite staff includes nurses, therapists, case managers, peer recovery specialists, and psychiatrists who provide person-centered and recovery-based support and problem-solving in a safe and comfortable environment that promotes healing and fosters community. This 24 hour/7 day-per-week program offers individual and group counseling to build and practice effective coping skills, like those related to personal safety, mental health crisis recovery, and understanding the influence of substance use on mental health. Treatment includes group therapies such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which teaches skills such as mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, as well as movement, mind-body, and skills-based groups.
